This is one of those aspects of forums that I find curious. If you post in an old thread you are criticized for bumping a dead thread; and yet, if you start a new thread you will be hammered for not searching for old threads to post in.
BTW, I'm not talking about this forum.

Sorry about that, didn't mean any harm. Could you point me to the rule list for this forum? The only rule list I could find was the open marketplace one.

They mostly in my head. Ban Requests are more terms of endearment. Except for the ones aimed at Trev.

Bumping threads is ok as long as you have something to add, not "oh this thread is cool". Bumping for the sake of bumping is generally accepted if it's not on the first page AND it's something you want others to talk about.

It's crucial to say something witty when bumping, like "arise thread", or reference "necroposting" or post a jpeg of a road sign that says "bump." You know, hilarious stuff like that so you don't look like a noob and get banned.

If you drag-select the white text on white background, you magically see that that page's list matches the list in this thread's first post, with the exception of Doom appearing on that guy's page but not here.

Just tried getting the FlightStick Pro to work on Doom. No dice. Manual also makes no mention of it. Therefore, I declare that the list in this thread is better than the list to which I linked in my previous post.
